回想起以前喝咖啡的日子,真覺得無知和愚昧。說是去喝咖啡,其實衝的是咖啡廳的裝磺與Bartender.而那少少的味道其實比不上茶來得那麽香的杯中物隻是陪襯與籍口罷了。

但因為泡的次數多了,也就記得了一些名稱,像拿鐵、卡布其諾、摩卡、藍山等,但其實有什麽分別,真的是東南西北中,分不清看不懂喝不出分別。其實咖啡在國外來說喝來喝去不過就包括以下幾種,當然,僅僅指的是熱咖啡;也不包括台灣大師林東源的什麽土豆泥加咖啡類的飲料。

CaffÈ Latte ......Espresso with steamed milk and in some shops, a small cap of foam. It has less foam than a cappuccino.In Australia: " 'Latte' gets you a _glass_ with a shot of espresso and lots of milk and some foam - half way between a flat white and a cap. Seems to have originated as the breakfast drink of Sydney commuters. Has become infinitely fashionable due to the need for brass glass holders, which only the fashionable coffee houses have (the rest of us wrap the glass in a napkin)"

CaffÈ Mocha ........ A term of no small controversy. Depending upon where you are, ordering a 'mocha' might get you a 'latte' or a cappuccino with chocolate syrup or hot cocoa. Mocha was a port in Yemen -- a major coffee-growing country located in southwest Asia at the southern tip of the Arabian peninsula -- and "it has NOTHING to do with chocolate!!!!!"

Cappuccino ......... A shot of espresso with the remainderbeing 50% steamed milk and 50% milk foam/froth. An alternative description is 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk,1/3 foamed milk. But again, this depends very much on the maker. Many places use more steamed milk and less froth."Cappuccino is essentially a latte topped with milk FOAM."

Flat White............1/3 coffee,2/3 hot milk. What's different with Latte? less milk, use a cup, not the glass.

Espresso Macchiato .. Macchiato is a dash of milk or cream in espresso."

Espresso ........... A 1-2 ounce drink made in by forcing hot water under pressure through finely ground coffee beans. Typically, espresso beans are darkly roasted but this is not a requirement.Espresso RistrettoA 'short pull' (stronger) espresso. "A ristretto is an espresso made with less the water used for a regular espresso.
